If it works properly under this test you need to adjust the door so.
Magnetic door lock troubleshooting.
This lock set up is constructed by fixing a plate of magnetic metal usually iron to the door and the electromagnet to the door frame.
If the em lock still fails to open when the push button is pressed proceed to step 2.
If this doesn t happen check the wiring connection between the exit button and the magnetic lock.
You can determine if this is the issue by applying pressure on the door so the lock latch is not pushing against the strike gate and then actuating the electric lock.

Similar to door closer issues door alignment issues can wreak havoc on any door hardware including mag locks.
This causes vibrations that could be impacting the mag lock.
Mis aligned doors also put undue stress on the hardware.
If not adjust the magnet out to the door or remove the plate on the door and pack it out with card or paper.
First check for voltage at the lock if voltage is present and the door is not locked then the lock is the problem.
The strength of the magnetic force holding the door closed will depend on how the coil is wound.
